One of the modern era\u2019s great guitarists is Tomahawk\u2019s Duane Denison. His scorched-earth work with the Jesus Lizard in the 90s was some of the most vital and dangerous-sounding music of that period. Balance that with his contributions to Hank Williams III and the Legendary Shack Shakers, to say nothing of all the other projects he\u2019s been involved with (Firewater, USSA, Revolting Cocks, Pigface), and you have a body of work that is diverse, influential and important.

Tomahawk returns with \u201cTonic Immobility,\u201d the band\u2019s first album in 8 years, on March 26. The first single, \u201cBusiness Casual,\u201d finds the band right where they left us with \u201cOddfellows.\u201d Duane\u2019s here to talk Tomahawk and other aspects of his stunning career.
